STEM Sprouts: Excavators in Action

In this playful, hands-on series, young learners will explore the fascinating world of rocks, minerals, and Earth science through age-appropriate experiments, stories, and creative projects. Each week introduces a new concept—like identifying different types of rocks, learning how soil and sediment move, exploring erosion and layering, or discovering how crystals form. Children will dig, sort, stack, and observe, experimenting with cause and effect while collaborating with peers to uncover the secrets of the Earth.

With a mix of sensory experiences, movement, and interactive activities, this program sparks curiosity while building early STEM foundations. It’s the perfect introduction to geology, helping young explorers understand the natural world and develop a love for discovery through play and creativity!


Class meets on Tuesdays, 1:15-2:45 , February 3rd, 10th, 17th
